Aspiring geological engineer with hands-on experience in geotechnical testing.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated geological engineer with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Mines and Technology (UMaT). My academic background, combined with practical experience in geotechnical testing and site investigations, has equipped me with a solid foundation in geological engineering principles. I have been actively involved in various internships and professional roles that have honed my skills in soil and rock mechanics.
Currently, I serve as a Logger for Percussion Drill at various sites, where I apply my knowledge in geological field mapping and geotechnical sampling. My internship at the Ghana Highways Authority Materials Lab has further enhanced my expertise in conducting essential tests such as Compaction, California Bearing Ratio (CBR), and Abrasion Tests. I am passionate about contributing to projects that require meticulous attention to detail and a strong understanding of geotechnical data interpretation.
